Apple’s iTunes App Store has hit 10 billion downloads. Launched alongside iPhone 3G in 2008 it’s grown to over 300,000 apps, with an install base of roughly 159 million iPhone, iPod touch and iPad devices sold to date.
UPDATE: Apple has made it all official-like by announcing that Paper Glider was the magic app and Gail Davis of Orpington, Kent, UK is the $10k iTunes gift card winner.
“With more than 10 billion apps downloaded in just two and a half years—a staggering seven billion apps in the last year alone—the App Store has surpassed our wildest dreams,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. “The App Store has revolutionized how software is created, distributed, discovered and sold. While others try to copy the App Store, it continues to offer developers and customers the most innovative experience on the planet.”
Apple also stated that have more than 350,000 apps including 60,000 iPad-specific apps, available in 90 countries.
Bummed you didn’t win? Hey, what would you have bought with $10k in iTunes bucks anyway?
